What makes forged wheels different from cast wheels?

Forged wheels are made by forcing molten aluminum into a mold under extreme pressure. This process creates a denser, stronger, and lighter wheel compared to cast wheels, which are made by simply pouring molten aluminum into a mold. This improved strength-to-weight ratio is beneficial for performance and handling.

What does 'Contrast Cut Platinum' finish mean?

Contrast Cut Platinum is a finish where the wheel is first machined from a solid piece of aluminum, then polished to a bright finish. After that, the machined details are highlighted with a darker tone, creating a visually striking contrast that accentuates the wheel's design elements.

Does this wheel come with any hardware or accessories?
